What's with the concerted effort to be self-deprecating on this site? Be thankful you have such a coveted entry level job, geez.
What's the point of this?
I just took a shit, what do I do?
Apologize for the seemingly nonsensical post. Getting killed these last few days.
I wanted to offer some perspective--I've met too many kids who already act like they're rockstar MD's. It starts to rub off. I've definitely noticed myself changing/become more of a tool. Just stay grounded, folks.
I feel you. I've put in about 80 hrs in just the past 5 days. Loving it but it's definitely not easy. And being around tools 24/7 doesn't help either. Just don't get cocky. Not yet at least. haha
Well technically junior analysts are a sort of back office, possibility-auditing support for "real" bankers... If you want to nitpick at work roles.
So people that audit at a Big 4 are not accountants either unless they bring in deals......right?
MD = salesman Vice President = process manager Associate = Proofreader Analyst = Formatting & Data Entry Clerk
nice
Wat RicochetX said..
It Makes Sense...
Intern = Fluffer.
Wow. This sums it up perfectly. IB in a nutshell.
yo bitch..my formatting brings in the revenues
intern = motor boater
Flip side: after I first started working as a BB analyst and told them it was a 2 year job, my parents only ever described it as / asked about my "finance trainee program" and once suggested I try to switch to a "management trainee program" at a Fortune 500 program... because it would give me better options.
your parents must be loaded if they described 120k after undergrad as a trainee program.
trading analysts = back office, then become addicted gamblers sales analysts = social cum guzzling whores
